Sri Lanka (the post-British colonial version of the country) is 60 years old today. From a Colombo Page article:
"Sri Lanka today celebrated its 60th year of independence from British rule at the Galle Face promenade in the capital Colombo with military parades of tanks and troops while fighter jets flew overhead despite threats of bomb attacks by Tamil Tigers."

Happy 60th birthday Sri Lanka.
